3x-9-5x = -7

combine like terms -9-2x = -7

add 9 to both sides

-2x = 2

divide both sides by -2

x - 2/-2 = -1

x = -1

All ratios have to simplified because it’s easier for the person to find the difference when breaking it down into lowest terms!

In the diagram below of triangle MNO, P is the midpoint of MO and Q is the midpoint of NO. If PQ = 5x + 62, and MN = 6x-4, what

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a triangle embedded in triangle MNO, which is triangle PQO, and these are similar triangles in that their corresponding sides are always in the same ratio, which in this case is 2:1, as MP = MO due to the midpoint definition, and therefore MO is twice as long as MP. Same for NO and QO.

Now that we know the ratio, we can set 6x-4 = 2(-5x+64)

6x-4 = -10x +108

16x = 112

x = 7

Plug x back in for PQ, -5(7)+64 = 29
